Sutton Bingham - Tue 12 Jul

A stop at the dam before work produced singles of Little Egret and Common Sandpiper whilst a Mandarin was in the company of the small flock of Canada Geese, the latter having successfully raised two goslings to fledging this year.
A couple of Kingfishers were also noted and seem to be a bit more obvious over the past few weeks. A pair of Linnet were on the dam and an amazing flock of seventeen Mistle Thrushes flew in and fed on the dam for a few minutes before gradually drifting off.
A return visit later in the day yielded a Great Black-backed Gull on West Pool and a couple of Common Sandpipers near the Sailing Club.
